Rick Perry has finally given up his run for the white house after repeatedly proving that he's an idiot. Now the citizens of texas are stuck with him as governor, what does it say about them that they keep voting for him? But then someone in canada must have voted for Harper. Could it be that red cedar pollen, my allergies, and medication for same have made me snarkier and more sarcastic than usual? Is that possible?
